Focus Electric introduces new features and technologies - including a unique version of the MyFord Touch driver connect system especially for electric vehicles, a new value charging feature powered by Microsoft and a smartphone app called MyFord Mobile that helps plug-in owners control their vehicles remotely.
Focus Electric is one of five new electrified vehicles included in the Ford electrification strategy. The battery system utilizes heated and cooled liquid to help maximize battery life and fuel-free driving range.
As an all-electric vehicle, Ford Focus will qualify for a $7,500 federal tax credit. The Focus Electric will join a growing group of consumer-available plug-in passenger vehicles, including the already-on-sale 2011 Nissan LEAF and 2011 Chevy Volt
